"Last week at a three-day retreat in upstate New York, Marina instructed Lady Gaga in the Abramovic Method — a series of exercises designed to heighten participants' awareness of their physical and mental experience in the present moment," reads the information with the video, which was posted Wednesday. (Apparently the thing is a promotion for a Kickstarter campaign by the institute, but we still don't get it.)

The NSFW video, which shows a fully nude Gaga and — did we mention? — includes this One Vocal Tone going on for a Really Long Time, can be seen elsewhere. Hopefully by viewers more sophisticated than the Ministry. Though we must say, that hip surgery seems to be working out well.
